As a
pre-requisite to taking the Basic Rider Course, students
must be
able to ride and balance a pedal bicycle. The pre-requisite for the Refresher Rider Course
is successful completion of the Basic Rider Course (you must present a
photocopy of your Basic Rider Course completion card).
The pre-requisite for the Experienced Rider Course
is either one year and 1,000 miles of riding experience or skillfully
passing the Basic Rider Course.

To
Graduate: Students must attend all portions of the classroom and
riding sessions to graduate. Due to RMV regulations and liability
insurance restrictions, you cannot participate in the course if you miss
any portion of the course. Students must be on time for all class
components (classroom and riding sessions) or they will be dismissed and
forfeit their tuition. To graduate the Basic or Experienced Rider
Course, students must also pass a
multiple-choice written exam and a riding skills evaluation.

To
Receive your License: Students who graduate from the Basic or
Experienced Rider Course (as described above) will
receive a Certificate of Motorcycle Rider Education Training.
Graduates are exempt from the Registry of Motor Vehicles road test.
In order to receive the road test waiver, students must supply a photocopy
of their learner's permit at the first class session. Permits must
not expire within two weeks after course completion.

The
Basic, Refresher, and Experienced Rider Courses involve the risk of personal
injury and the training can be physically and mentally demanding.
Also, the course is conducted in a group format with a ratio of 6 students
per Rider Coach. If students are not able to keep up with the pace
of the course, or if they pose a hazard to themselves or others, they may
be dismissed from the course. If a student is dismissed, they
will not receive a tuition refund.

Student-supplied
motorcycles to be used in the Experienced Rider Course must pass a pre-ride
inspection.
